with children and even some adults or
self-help books.

need to improve my English because of two main reasons. Firstly, I want to get a
better job in the future. When I have a English certificate, I can apply to the company
with a high salary.
Secondly, I want to travel around the world and have a foreign husband.
With the reasons I have mentioned above, I believe that English is very important
for me.

25. Your job

with the customer to obtain the documentation, audit evidence. Then, I and members
of my team discuss together to expose the conclusion about the financial
statement whether disclose true and fairly. I love my job very much because it helps
me to improve my value every day.
26. Tell me the best way to travel around your country?
I’d say that the best way to travel in Vietnam is to go by motorbikes because it is
really convenient. The buses are a bit cheaper, but I don’t think that is such a
comfortable way to travel. Also, there is usually traffic congestion at rush hours,
especially in big cities like Hanoi or HCM City. Therefore, if you go by bus, you
may be stuck on the streets for hours. So then, motorbikes are really the best option,
and of course, they give you the most freedom when you are traveling.

27. A typical day like?

 I usually wake up early every morning. I eat breakfast and then I go to school at 7
a.m. I have the class from 7 a.m to 11 a.m. In the afternoon, I do my homework and
play badminton with my father. In the evening, I sometimes hangout with my
friend….

28. What is the food like in your country?

There are many traditional and delicious foods in Vietnam but I think the most
famous food is Pho. It has become the must-try dish on VN for any visitors. It’s
tasty, cheap and available at all hours.The speciality of the food is the broth. It is
made by stewing the bones of cows and pigs for a long time in a large pot. I love
Pho very much so I can eat eveyday.
29. Your favorite place?
There are a lot of places I like but my favorite place is Nha Trang. I think it is the
most beautiful city in Viet Nam with a beautiful beach. I love to be there for a long
time as I can rest softly and I have a good time to play sea sports and eat seafood.
Nha Trang is a great place to make new inspiration and relax.
30. When do you feel stressed?
Communication with foreigners is the thing that I find most stressful. Because I do
not have good use of English to speak fluently and Lack of vocabulary &
confidence. I understand fully my job's requirement of English Fluency, I remind
myself of learning to spend more time looking for some interactive & visually
engaging. Hopefully, in the next few months, I will no longer get stressed in that
situation.
31. What are you wearing today?
Well, I am not really the fashionable type. I prefer casual clothes – simple and
comfortable. Therefore, today I am in a pair of jeans and a white T-shirt.
